Yeah you could say that. I also have alot of friends and a very close supportive family so I guess I am a rich man.
I also just recently graduated college, my only bills are my truck payment and insurance, cell phone and very small amount of studetn loans (compared to many others). Top it off i make $48k a year and since I just graduated 5 months ago and am saving to buy a house (or buy part of the farm and build)rather than rent and pay for someone elses house I still live with mom and dad. Works out great for us all, they get a lot of maintenance and contrcution work, dad hasn't cut firewood in I don't know how long, and they even though I am pretty much only there to sleep and do laundry I still pay 1/3 of the utility bills even though they have told me not to worry about it.

Hey Taz, top of the mornig to ya. Just to all you newbies to this thread Taz isn't a UPS guy, he's a sabotuer that works for Fed Ex hoping to offend enough people that they "say I ain't using UPS again cause of that guy!" Just kidding.

BTW Taz, I saw earlier that you said you were a big Dale Jarrett fan, I'm glad to know that there are two of us one here. The only race I ever went to see (I was already a big DJ fan) he won. It was at the Brickyard 400 on my 19th birthday in August of 1999. I love Nascar, you can carry your own cooler in. A friend of mine and I went on a whim, had 10th row infield seats right behind the pit crews about halfway down the front stretch. Cars were at top speed in front of us at about 190 something. It wa awesome and DJ Won, he led for 113 of 180 laps.

My dad is A salesman at our local Ford dealer and took teh Memphis region rep out fishing one day and was able to get me a DJ autographed Ford Credit Racing hat, I've never worn it, still in the box on the shelf with the tag on it. I have a lug nut off of his car from that race somewhere but in a remodel job it got redistributed somewhere.

Back in 2001 I went to one of his fan club meetings/autograph sessions, I handed him the #18 transporter for him to sign and he looked up with a surprised look on his face and I said "I have been a fan for a long time" and he grined shook my hand and said geez I guess so Thans alot!" I almost fell over
